Course credit for internships

Students who are interested in obtaining credit for internships should first secure an internship with a provider. Once confirmed, contact Dr. Hudak, for permission to register for GEOG 4920/5900.

You will be required to compile a portfolio during the course of your internship and provide a letter of assessment from the internship provider. Both will be used to determine a "grade" for the course.

The United
States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation (USGIF) is excited to announce the
opening of our 2013 Scholarship Program. USGIF is dedicated to assisting
promising students interested in geospatial sciences with scholarship awards to
further the advancement of the geospatial intelligence tradecraft.

Scholarship
recipients are chosen based on their academic and professional excellence
in a field related to the geospatial intelligence tradecraft.

Last year the Foundation awarded
$104,000 to 25 recipients and plans to award at least $100,000 for the 2013
program. High school recipients are awarded $2,000 per scholarship and all
others are awarded $5,000 each. Since 2004, USGIF has awarded $584,000 in
scholarship funding to promising students in the geospatial intelligence field.

Students studying in fields such as
geography, political science, physics, computer science, engineering, biology,
anthropology, sociology or any field in the natural and social sciences are
encouraged to apply. Through the USGIF Scholarship Program, the Foundation
strives to communicate to students the breadth and power of GEOINT in serving
national, global and human security interests.

The USGIF Scholarship Program
endeavors to support students with innovative ideas for problem-solving with
Geospatial Science and Technology. Please share information about this
scholarship program with your students.
